Thank you very much! After doing a few shows with PNLTC, I've seen a lot of
really nice MOC trains in the last 6 months. Being around these guys has to
rub off at least a little.

When I was building this, I only had 2 pictures to go on (1 from a
coffee-table book, and 1 from a Walthers catalog). I actually just plain
made up the rear. Since, I have found a number of other shots on the web.
The rear has a small deck behind the body, like I have. It doesn't have an
enclosed corridor-type connection, but it does have doorways in both the
nose and the tail (neither of which I modeled).
This page has a lot of photos that I would have loved to have when I was
building the model:
